INTRODUCING CLEEN INTRODUCING CLEEN
Year of the Horse, 2014, will be the year of change
for CLEEN Ltd. During 2013, plans were made and set
for internationalizing the CLEEN open innovation
platform, to have a significantly more ambitious
target setting, as well as the growth and renewal of
industries. These three elements comprising CLEEN
2.0 have been implemented by initiating public-
private partnership based cooperation with Chinese
and Indian industrial and research partners and by
launching the target-oriented Strategic Research
Agenda (SRA) with corresponding SRA Project
Portfolio development. At the same time, the first-
generation SRA with related research programs are
entering their final phase. The Future Combustion
Engine Power Plants (FCEP) program is paving
the way by turning off its engines in Q1/2014. On
the other hand, the last first-generation thematic
research program consortium focusing on Material
Value Chains (ARVI) is holding its horses to tackle
resource efficiency while waiting for the public
funding decision.
During 2013, the first-generation CLEEN platform for
open innovation-based public-private partnership
was running at full speed.
The portfolio consists of seven programs with a
total research volume exceeding 40 M€, executed
by 80 companies representing 14 industries and
20 research institutes.
All of these are aiming for the common goal
of a comprehensively monitored and assessed
environment and a sustainable future energy system.
This platform has attracted a high level of
interest in the most rapidly developing countries,
such as China, Korea, India, Kazakhstan and
Ecuador.
Besides their drive and enormous resources, the
strong and uniform faith of their governments,
businesses and academia to increase productivity by
combining the R&D&I demands of various industries,
scientific disciplines and societal needs is enviable.
Thus, it has been a privilege and pleasure to present
the research and operational principles of CLEEN to
the highest officials of the Kazakhstan government,
the Shenzhen and Binhai New Area Science and
Technology Commissions, as well as to the board of
the largest utility company in India, to name just a
few. Based on the feedback, we are on the right track,
but we have to move much faster and be more agile
to maintain the edge.
The first action to implement CLEEN 2.0 is to
export the CLEEN platform to emerging markets in
cooperation with INSIGMA Group Co. Ltd (Hangzhou)
and the Danish Technology Institute. The mutual
aim for 2014 is to establish a Sino-Nordic Cleantech
Innovation Institute in Tianjin Binhai New Area. From
our point of view, it is based on the encouraging
Sino-Finnish cooperation in the MMEA program,
which was initiated by our partners in Green China
Lab (Shenzhen) and GreenNet Finland.
The mission of the Cleantech Innovation
Institute is to combine high-end but diverse
Nordic cleantech and scientific excellence into
comprehensive solutions and to tailor them in
cooperation with local partners to fulfil Chinese
needs for a cleaner environment.
This necessitates joint research programs and
demonstrations with Nordic and Chinese companies,
research institutes and authorities. The first
demonstrations will focus on air quality, which is
the most acute environmental issue in China, and
in which Finnish universities, research institutes and
companies are globally acknowledged scientific and
CEO review
technological spearheads. If united, the performance
of the air quality-related atmospheric and (ultra) fine
particulate physics of Finnish scientists, as well as
the monitoring and filtering technologies of Finnish
companies, will be unbeatable.
Besides China, concrete cooperation is emerging
with our Indian partners. A memorandum of
understanding was signed with Oil and Natural Gas
Company (ONGC) aiming to have ONGC as one of
the key partners in the Efficient Energy Use (EFEU)
and Carbon Capture and Storage (CCSP) programs
within 2014.
ONGC’s strong commitment to cooperation is an
acknowledgement of Finnish scientific excellence
and offering in the field of bioenergy, energy
efficiency and bio-based CO2 capture solutions.
The second action to implement CLEEN 2.0
was the launching of a renewed process for the
continuous review of SRA. The current SRA is based
on global megatrends, which are grouped into
four SRA Themes. From the CLEEN perspective,
the megatrends can be highlighted in view of the
updated New Policies Scenario of IEA for the next
twenty years. The radical change of the global energy
markets is driven by the major increase (>60%) in
primary energy demand in Asia, tripling of the share
of variable renewable energy in primary energy to
more than one fifth in the European Union, and
the dramatic increase (>130%) in unconventional
gas production especially in North America. As
before, energy-efficiency includes the highest
economical, technical and ecological potential and is
applicable practically in all human-set processes but,
unfortunately, it will most probably remain untapped
to a great extent. Besides energy,
CLEEN recognizes as a relevant megatrend that
the population in urban areas is estimated to
grow up to two billion people, representing a
50% growth in cities. Together with the rise of
the middle class (consumption), environmental
awareness and digitalization, this will bring
opportunities to the ones capable of creating
cross-industrial and multi-disciplinary systemic
solutions for a healthy living environment.
One of the major vehicles for the change in a global
energy outlook is natural gas and, especially in its
intercontinental state, liquid natural gas (LNG). IEA
assumes that during the next twenty years the
increase of LNG trade clearly outpaces the increase
in natural gas demand, though impressive itself at
50%. Besides the geographic shift in production
and demand, the current fivefold price in Japan as
well as two- to threefold prices in China and the EU
compared to the US will create an invincible driver for
global trade, energy flows and investments. The LNG
trade comprising new hubs with spot pricing, havens,
ships, and production and power generation systems
will provide trillions of dollars of investment demand.
In addition, the enlarged gas infrastructure will
enable the distribution and use of renewable gases.
A billion dollar question for Finland is what kinds of
competences, technologies, products and services
our share in this market will be based on. Could it
be small-scale terminals and hubs in technologically
challenging and ecologically vulnerable Arctic
environments, such as the Northern Sea Route,
technologies for synthetic natural gas or energy, or
environmentally efficient gas to power solutions? Most
probably, a small country should not focus on a single
technology aiming to fulfil a narrow market need,
but it should aim for the markets that necessitate
combining various interests and competences and
where agility and cooperation skills are crucial.

1312 1312
The architecture of a future energy system is driven
by the mitigation of environmental impacts and
the scarcity of natural resources. The change is
facilitated by efficient energy conversion, distribution
and use, as well as by renewable energy. In the EU,
the globally highest share of variable renewable
energy has created forerunner markets for solutions
that address the increased system dynamics and
insecurity of supply. It is also assumed that the EU
will triple the share of variable renewables to almost
one quarter of its primary energy need within the
next twenty years. Although it is assumed that the
rest of the world will present even higher growth
figures, the EU will maintain its leading position.
Fortunately, the pace of development in power
electronics, ICT and electricity markets will enable
order-of-magnitude performance leaps to adapt
real-time power demand to available generation.
Complemented with sulphur and particulate free
gas-to-power dispatch power sources and power-
to-gas storage solutions, the two SRA Themes will
form an essential part of the future sustainable
and competitive energy system that could be
demonstrated in our home market.
Urbanization is a widely recognized global
megatrend, but it is not a homogeneous one. It
is based on estimates of an increase in the global
population from 7 to 9 billion in twenty years,
equalling the growth in urban areas. However, it
is a truly multi-faceted phenomenon with an aim
to mitigate utmost poverty in Africa and to further
increase productivity in the most developed and
wealthiest economies. China alone has an ambitious
plan to move 300 people into cities and to transfer
the nation from a manufacturing and investment
driven economy to a service and consumption
driven one to address the inevitable need to
increase productivity. At the same time, the leaders
of P.R.China strongly emphasize the harmony of
the society, a much cleaner environment, and
comprehensive resource efficiency. The opportunity
is as wide as it is diverse, so we decided to focus
on a healthy urban environment and to start with
ensuring clean air for urban citizens while noting
that water and soil will soon be on the agenda.
Sustainable healthy indoor air necessitates real-
time and forward-looking outdoor air monitoring,
advanced HVAC systems, and distributed energy
systems with peak power management and demand
response, thus, coupling the above three SRA
Themes strongly together.
Finally, increasing industrialization, the demand for
natural resources, the valuation of viable land space,
people awareness, digitalization, and big and open
data will produce a demand and an opportunity for
“environmentally efficient industrial regions”where
natural resources are refined in an environmentally
sustainable and transparent way. Besides the techno-
operational innovation in industrial ecosystems
or symbioses, new measures and validation for
environmental efficiency have to be created and
transparently monitored. If“Homo Urbanus”is the
focus of our first three SRA Themes, the forth one is
definitely“Terra Mater”.
The third action of the CLEEN 2.0 implementation
is to hand over the CLEEN platform by the first-
generation thematic SHOK Programs to the next-
generation target-oriented SRA Project Portfolios,
which comprise diverse R&D&I instruments. The
Portfolios facilitate and enable information exchange
between various public funding instruments, which
are tailored for diverse parties, time to markets and
geographic locations. This means close and real-time
cooperation with curiosity research, development,
demonstration and commercialization projects, but
servicing the shared target(s).
The portfolios will speed up the research to
market value chain, transforming it from linear
to parallel, and incubating global competence
and business ecosystems. The benefits are further
multiplied by uniting aggressively growing
small enterprises, world-leading multinational
corporations and universities on the same
platform.
Hopefully, these platforms may be orchestrated from
Finland, although the platform members will be
located all over the globe.
Breaking the silos and ensuring cooperation
of various well-defined and efficient public
funding instruments is an option to bring the
productiveness of the Finnish innovation system
to the next level.
As important as it is to continuously renew the
operational models of R&D&I, it is equally crucial to
take care of the long-term development of Finnish
core competences and their relevance to cope with
equally long-term and global systemic opportunities
in energy and the environment.
The focus is NOW on matching the increasing
variable renewable power to demand, discovering
the business opportunities lurking in massive
investments in the global gas infrastructure, and
ensuring clean air in megacities. All three should be
linked together and tackled in close cooperation
with the globally best possible partners on the
leading public-private partnership open innovation
platform, which will leverage its wings from Europe
to Asia. However, please be aware of change – it is
inevitable.

R&D council
CLEEN’s R&D Council is our most important forum for
information distribution, and it acts as a channel for the
shareholders to influence R&D activity within CLEEN. The
Council has a central role in implementing CLEEN’s strategy,
and it supports the management and the Board of Directors,
for example, in updating the Strategic Research Agenda (SRA)
and in developing the activities in CLEEN. The Council also aims
to initiate discussions on new research programs and to follow
up the implementation of the Strategic Research Agenda by
providing feedback on ongoing research programs.
Various roles and objectives of CLEEN’s shareholders
and research consortiums are clarified in figures 1
and 2.
In 2013, the R&D Council’s two general assemblies
were held in June and November (June 11, 2013 and
November 22, 2013). Professor Mikko Hupa from Åbo
Akademi University acted as chairman at both of
these general assemblies. Professor Kaarle Hämeri
from the University of Helsinki acted as deputy chair
of the Council in 2013.
DIRECTION FROM WORKING GROUPS TO
DEVELOP THE ACTIVITY
The R&D Council incorporates annually confirmed
working groups, which support CLEEN’s
development targets. In 2013, the two working
groups were active in pursuing the following tasks:
1. SRA update,
chair: Dr. Mikko Laakso (Vaisala)
2. New project and funding models,
chair: Mrs. Marja Englund (Fortum)
CONTINUOUS ANALYSIS OF SRA UPDATE NEEDS
In November 2012, the Board of Directors of CLEEN
accepted the SRA update group’s proposal for a
new SRA update process. According to the new
process, the SRA update was launched in the second
general assembly of the R&D Council in 2012, and
it continued throughout the year 2013. The new
process is presented in Figure 3.
In spring 2013, the SRA update group first carried
out foresight and background analyses to identify
the most relevant global challenges and trends
as the basis for building new SRA and new R&D&I
programs and project on the CLEEN platform.
CLEEN shareholders and the participants of ongoing
research programs were widely engaged in this
process, utilizing a new online discussion tool to
collect ideas for new research themes and projects.
As a result, four major themes were identified for
further analysis:
1. Architecture of the Future Energy System
2. Sustainable Production, Handling and Use of
Gases for Energy Production
3. Sustainable City
4. Environmentally Efficient Areas
In the first general assembly of the R&D Council in
June 2013, SRA theme groups were established for
each of these themes with the task of writing theme-
specific strategic research agendas. These groups
started their work in August 2013 and presented their
proposals for strategic research agendas for each
theme in the second general assembly of the R&D
Council in November 2013. International evaluators
were invited to give comments and suggestions
to the SRAs before finalizing the proposals. The
chairmen, principal writers and international
evaluators for the SRA theme groups were as follows:
Architecture of the Future Energy System
Chair: Professor Erkki Antila, University of Vaasa
Principal writer: Professor Matti Lehtonen, Aalto
University
International evaluators:
Dr. Karin Alvehag, PhD Power Systems, Expert in the
field of economic network regulation, Sweden

Technology Platform (ESTEP), Belgium
In late 2013, the Board of Directors of CLEEN decided
to give permission to launch the program and
project preparation in all of the four SRA Themes.
However, the Board wanted a more specific goal to
be formulated for each theme before launching the
projects/programs. A clear goal would create more
target-oriented programs and also help in evaluating
their success.
PROJECT AND FINANCING MODELS TO
CORRESPOND WITH THE RESEARCH STRATEGY
The starting point for the work of working group 2
was to review various project and financing models
and their suitability for implementing CLEEN’s
strategic research agenda. During 2013, the working
group continued the mapping process launched
in 2012 for CLEEN shareholders to identify those EU
platforms and working groups that the shareholders
find interesting and/or in which they are active
participants. In addition, the working group analyzed
the kinds of project models that would be suitable
for the realization of CLEEN’s new SRA (Figure 4)
and invited other SHOKs to share good practices.
Furthermore, the working group studied the IPR rules
for different funding schemes.
The chairs of the working groups, together with the
chair and vice-chair of the R&D Council, the chair of
the Science Council and the CTO of CLEEN, formed
the core team of the R&D Council, the task of which is
to prepare, on the basis of the working groups’work,
the Council’s proposals to the Board of Directors and
the management of CLEEN.

Just over three years ago, we launched a goal-
oriented project to develop CLEEN’s quality and high
standards. The reason for this was not poor quality or
other problems, but the desire to build CLEEN into
a key strategic player that is able to bring together
industrial relevance and scientific excellence in its
programs. The Science Council is part of this vision –
a tool that navigates CLEEN onwards and upwards.
The task of the Science Council is to assess and
develop the quality and scientific excellence of
CLEEN and its programs. The Scientific Advisory
Boards, SABs, designated for the programs are
responsible for the actual assessment of the scientific
contents of programs. Both the Science Council and
the SABs are outside advisory bodies and are not
involved in actual decision-making.
Members of the Science Council represent
multidisciplinary, broad-spectrum Finnish expertise.
The SABs consist of top international experts in their
fields. With this combination, we are able to deal
with wider entities and quality issues on the one
hand, and also to get our teeth into the details of
excellence and support thematic programs on the
other hand.
The processes used for assessing the quality of
CLEEN are working well and are a natural part of
CLEEN’s operations. Outside opinions without any
personal interests to pursue have been found to be
useful in the programs. The processes for running
the assessment are clear and cost-effective. In the
evaluation of SHOKs, CLEEN’s assessment processes
were commended.
All SHOKs were evaluated in 2013. The SHOK
instrument received criticism but, on the other
hand, it seems that the expectations set for the
SHOKs were unrealistic. In the public debate
following the evaluation, it looked as if SHOKs were
expected to produce miracles with regard to the
competitiveness of our industry in just a few years.
The Science Council considered it appropriate to
comment on this debate especially with respect
to high standards. In late autumn 2013, the Science
Council stated in the journal Talouselämä that it
is impossible to kick-start excellence just like that,
and that long-term work is needed in order to build
expertise. The Science Council also emphasized the
significance of internationalization, especially the
great importance of flexibility in operations and their
funding when aiming to the top of the world. The
Finnish innovation funding system is too rigid, and it
too should be reformed.
The first CLEEN programs are coming to a conclusion.
For the evaluation of the success of the programs,
the Science Council has updated and simplified
the evaluation criteria. Although the required
information can be obtained from the programs
fairly easily, they do, however, provide an extensive
overall picture of the achievements of the programs
in different fields.
The updating of CLEEN’s Strategic Research Agenda
(SRA) was launched in 2013, and it will continue in
2014 as preparation work for the research programs.
The Science Council discussed the contents of SRAs
from the viewpoints of quality and high standards.
The Council emphasized, for example, the need for
focusing, increased internationalization, and more
challenging research questions beyond the state-of-
the-art. The Science Council stresses the significance
of competitive bidding in the building of research
teams – participation in the preparatory work for
the programs should not automatically guarantee
research funding. This new principle will be applied
in the launch of new programs.
Along with the SRA update and new programs,
CLEEN will enter a new development stage in 2014.
In view of high standards, the quality processes are
now in-built from the very beginning. This should
mean, e.g. an increasing amount of top research,
stronger interaction between industry and academia,
internationalization, and greater visibility. Together,
all of these will increase CLEEN’s effectiveness. As
a result, the competitiveness of enterprises will be
strengthened and products will be renewed.

The key areas of the research are:
1. Future bioenergy scenarios and strategies
2. Sustainability (incl. health & safety issues)
3. Flexible and cost-efficient solutions for multi-fuel biomass supply chains
4. Understanding new markets
5. Biomass availability, price and quality
6. Analysis and design of bioenergy systems and concepts
The Sustainable Bioenergy Solutions for Tomorrow (BEST) research program focuses on
building the big picture of the future strategic opportunities of bioenergy and facilitating
collaboration across traditional business area boundaries. The aim is to strengthen the
capabilities of the Finnish bioenergy community to enable growth in sustainable global
bioenergy business.
The BEST program is the latest addition to the CLEEN
program portfolio, launched in early 2013. BEST is a
joint research effort between CLEEN and the Finnish
Bioeconomy Cluster (FIBIC). The program combines
the strengths of the forest and energy sectors,
complemented by the know-how of technology and
consulting companies and research organizations. The
BEST consortium consists of 21 industrial and 13 research
partners. The planned duration is four years (2013–2016)
with an annual budget of roughly €4 million. The first
results have already started to emerge, but the majority
of the results of the first funding period (2013–14) are
targeted in 2014. The key issues studied in 2013 are
summarized in the following.
One of the main objectives of BEST is to create a joint
understanding of the future strategic opportunities of
bioenergy and the necessary capabilities for seizing them.
The work has started with a critical review of existing
scenarios and outlooks related to bioenergy and the
supply and demand of biomass, and also of the political,
economic, societal and technical drivers affecting them.
Based on this summary and the know-how of the
program participants, a set of bioenergy scenarios will
be created and analyzed. One of the outcomes will be an
action plan on how to turn the development favorable
for Finnish actors and stimulate sustainable growth.
In the area of bioenergy sustainability, the first stage
in creating a framework for managing the overall
sustainability of different bioenergy chains has been
completed. This has included summarizing, analyzing and
classifying key sustainability indicators and methods from
the point of view of different bioenergy actors. Specific
sustainability challenges related to agribiomass, climate
impacts and social issues have been identified and
studied. A first set of measurements to analyze emissions
at power plants has been conducted to identify and solve
possible problems in work safety.
A first draft of new-generation multi-fuel biomass
terminal concepts has been created, aiming at radically
improving the cost-efficiency, flexibility and reliability of
biomass sourcing. In addition to the physical terminal,
a virtual terminal including the data management of
the whole terminal supply chain is being studied. A
simulation model for bioenergy supply chains has been
built and tested, and the model will be applied in case
studies. The model utilizes biomass (both forest and agro-
based) availability data summarized in other tasks of the
program. Development of measurement technologies
needed in the new terminals and supply chains has been
started.
Methodology for assessing biomass availability and
distribution is being developed, and the airborne laser
scanning method has already been shown to provide
good accuracy in the prediction of biomass availability.
With respect to raw material quality, prediction models
for natural drying of energy wood have been developed,
and special emphasis has been put on including dry
matter losses in the models. The first version of the
calculation model of storage costs and losses was also
developed.
The role of bioenergy and biomaterial concepts as
part of the energy systems in future cities has been
studied. Special emphasis has been put on assessing
waste systems and estimating future (waste) material
production and characteristics in cities.
A lot of data and knowledge regarding bioenergy
opportunities and challenges in India has already been
gained via studies, surveys and research trips. Two
extensive surveys have been completed to assess the
availability and potential of different biomass resources.
The current supply chains and bioenergy technologies
have been studied and site locations for theoretical
biomass plant case studies have been considered.
Numerous new connections have been established in
India in order to support the building of a Finnish-Indian
collaboration network.
Finland’s participation in the IEA Bioenergy collaboration
is being coordinated through BEST, and strategic
planning of the work and knowledge transfer from the
network to Finnish actors has been started. Furthermore,
new opportunities for international collaboration have
also been identified and will continue to be discussed
and explored in 2014.

CARBON CAPTURE &
STORAGE PROGRAM
ccsp
02
The main objective of the Carbon Capture and Storage (CCSP) research program is to
achieve technological and conceptual breakthroughs in know-how, development and
commercialization of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) for participating companies
and research organizations - and at the same time to build up novel collaboration
coalitions between the parties.
The CCSP consortium consists of 17 companies and
nine research partners. The research program started
up in 2011 and is scheduled to run for five years. The
annual budget for the program has been about
€3 million so far. In addition, national participation
in various international networks related to CCS
is organized via the program. Active international
research collaboration is also carried out with the
Swedish CCS project, NORDICCS and ICT (India).
In 2013, a new method for analyzing and measuring
the amine emissions from post-combustion CO2
capture plants has been developed. The method
is one of the most accurate in the world, and it has
been awarded with FINAS accreditation, making
it the first accredited method for measuring
amine emissions. The new, accredited method has
already drawn interest from many relevant global
actors in the field of CCS. Further work on post-
combustion capture has been carried out related
to the development of models for making process
simulations of post-combustion CO2 capture more
accurate, including models simulating the formation
of heat-stable salts and the gas flow in structured
packed bed columns.
Oxy-fuel combustion is one of the most promising
technologies for CO2 capture and is therefore being
further developed in the program. Detailed models
for the heat transfer and behavior of limestone
in oxy-fuel combusted Circulating Fluidized Bed
(CFB) boilers are being developed. The feasibility of
using oxy-fuel CFB boilers in multi-fuel CHP plants
is also evaluated. Results show that using oxy-fuel
combustion in a biomass-fired CHP plant could be a
promising combination for achieving significant CO2
emission reductions. The results further indicate that,
when taking only the operational costs into account,
the economic penalty is relatively small if all heat
can be utilized. Bio-CCS is also being studied in close
collaboration with the Zero Emission Platform and
Biomass Technology Platform Joint Task Force.
A cold model test rig has been constructed and
used for developing chemical looping combustion
(CLC), and simulation tools for CLC have been further
developed. Techno-economical studies of the
performance of industrial-scale CLC power plants
show that CLC can be a competitive CO2 capture
technology in certain cases.
Possibilities for CO2 utilization are also being studied.
Thermo-catalytic decomposition of methane is being
developed as a method to reduce CO2 emissions in
natural gas combustion, achieving a 75% hydrogen
yield in laboratory experiments. Cultivation of
micro-algae using actual power plant flue gases
has been successfully carried out. The feasibility
and sustainability of this concept is currently being
assessed. A first laboratory pilot plant for storing CO2
as precipitated calcium carbonate using steelmaking
slags is being built. The plant is expected to be
operational in 2013. Other options studied include
methanol and formic acid synthesis.

DISTRIBUTED ENERGY SYSTEMS
desy
03 DESY program consists of DESY Research and DESY
Demonstrations. The program brings together
the energy users, energy producers, technology
providers, engineering and consultant companies
and researchers whose ambition is to tackle the
present and foreseen challenges of distributed
energy systems, laying the ground for their real
market penetration.
The DESY program will analyze, compare and
recommend the best and most efficient business
model alternatives among the many renewable
energy paths available for business opportunities in
today’s technological platforms.
Methods will be developed for designing and sizing
hybrid energy components and optimizing the
entire system. The goal is to optimize hybrid energy
systems using the best available components and
optimal dimensioning to fulfil the environmental
criteria set on the energy systems of the future. The
final model could be used as a design and operation
model for hybrid energy systems using renewable
energy sources.
DESY research topics are local energy sources,
technical hybrid solutions, energy storing, business
concept analysis, sustainability and energy self-
sufficiency.
THE DESY PROGRAM HAS THREE MAIN THEMES:
1. Hybrid solutions and energy storing; towards
efficient sizing, optimization and simulations tools
of hybrid energy systems
2. Business concept; analysis, service, financing,
market analyses, risks, potential, scenarios, energy
policy, law enacting, trends of sustainable society
3. Local energy, sustainability and energy self-
sufficiency; energy efficiency, environmental
impacts, life-cycle, recycling, town planning,
infrastructure
THE MAIN RESULTS AFTER ONE YEAR
The DESY model has been developed in cooperation
with research partners. The model simulates energy
systems in buildings and district area heating
networks. Energy sources can include ground heat,
solar heat and electricity, small-scale wind power,
as well as biofuels, wastes, process heat, and natural
water resources. Heat and electricity storage facilities
can be connected to the systems in buildings and
districts. CHP production is recommended when
the heat load is sufficient. A low-temperature district
heat network is recommended in areas with small
houses and zero-energy buildings, making solar
energy and heat pumps accessible in buildings and
district heat networks as part of the energy solution.
Double direction of electricity and heat trade should
be made possible in the district.
Process analyses and carbon footprint calculations
have been carried out at bio-ethanol plants, micro-
CHP plants and zero-energy buildings.
Two demonstrations are in use and in the
measurement phase, one is under construction and
the rest of the demos are in the planning phase.

EFFICIENT ENERGY USE

The focus areas are regional energy systems,
energy chains, and industrial systems. Although
independent, the focus areas are quite closely linked
to one another. Each of the focus areas will need to
undergo major systemic changes due to changes in
regulation, consumer behavior and new technology.
The planned duration of the EFEU program is
September 2011 – December 2016 with a total
program volume of €12 million. The research study
in 2013 was conducted by twelve industrial partners
and five research partners. The key achievements of
2013 are briefly highlighted in the following.
Methods and tools for energy efficiency business
models and regional energy analysis and
optimization have been developed within the
focus area of regional energy systems. A regional
energy-efficiency estimation model to assess
fulfilment of regional energy-efficiency plans and
their environmental and economic impacts has been
developed and applied for the analysis of the Lohja
and Lappeenranta–Imatra regions. An optimization
method to solve a regional heat supply network from
supplies to consumers has been demonstrated in the
Lohja case.
Research in energy chains has focused on gaseous
fuels. Energy and CO2-efficiency of the production
of biomass-based synthetic natural gas has been
analyzed using available energy-efficiency analysis
methods. Based on the shortcomings of the
aforementioned methods, a novel analysis method
based on a combination of primary energy and
exergy analyses has been developed and validated
on the same case. Optimization methods and
tools to tackle energy chain problems have been
expanded to study LNG-distribution possibilities in
Finland.
Utilization of waste heat, more precisely latent
heat from wet dryer off-gas, was investigated on a
pilot scale. Preliminary results indicate that a 30%
reduction in primary energy is achievable. This means
that the specific energy consumption for each ton of
removed water from concentrate and lignite can be
reduced from 3,700 and 3,100 MJ / t water down to
level of 2,600 and 2,200, respectively.
Two energy-efficiency-based speed control methods
for reservoir pumping applications have been
developed and evaluated both with laboratory
and pilot tests. Modelling of multiphase flows for
jet pump technology provides information on the
usability of pumps to transfer pressurized nitrogen
and on the optimization of jet pump technology to
transfer oil-liquid-gas fluids.
The Efficient Energy Use (EFEU) research program (2011–2016) aims to build knowledge
and competence to enable future economic growth in new product and service
innovations in energy efficiency. Methods and tools will be developed to measure,
model, analyze and optimize energy efficiency at the system level instead of optimizing
individual system components.

05 In addition, there is an important national objective
to establish unique, world-class research facilities in
Finland for energy-producing combustion engines
and their auxiliary systems. The duration of the FCEP
program is January 2010 – February 2014 with a total
program volume of €37.8 M. The research is conducted
by eight industrial partners and nine research partners.
There have been no changes in the consortium. The
key achievements of 2013 are briefly highlighted in the
following.
In the area of engine combustion, the objective is
to increase fundamental understanding of factors
influencing the performance, emission formation and
emission reduction of internal combustion engines.
The result highlights include the first-published Large
Eddy Simulations (LES) of supersonic fuel sprays, pre-
tabulated detailed chemistry for combustion (LES),
and fully automated Computational Fluid Dynamics
(CFD) combustion optimization. On the experimental
side, the medium-speed single-cylinder research
engine with, e.g. adjustable valve timing and fuel
injection parameters is now capable for high-pressure
(30 Mpa) and high-speed (1290 rpm) operation. High-
pressure operation means higher power density, i.e.
more power from the same size. High gas density
also provides an opportunity for better combustion
control and improved fuel/air mixing. According to the
first results, low soot levels are possible, and there is
potential to reduce NOx emissions by valve timing.
New engine-integrated devices to increase energy
efficiency have been designed and built for testing.
The performance and safety tests of the Electro
Hydraulic Valve Actuation (EHVA) device have been
conducted. The forthcoming doctoral dissertation,
’Fully Variable Valve Actuation in Large Bore Diesel
Engines’, will conclude the characteristics of the
EHVA hydraulic and control system. A high pressure
turbocharger with a power output possibility was
developed and tested in the laboratory. Tests with
a new smart fuel pump prototype showed a clear
increase in efficiency compared with a commercial
pump, but a new design is needed to improve long-
term durability. The Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) is
suitable for small-scale heat recovery from medium-
and low-temperature heat sources. A real-scale
prototype is being built, and tests have been run to
evaluate the potential of the ORC process as part of
an engine power plant. In the area of efficient power
conversion, the focus has been on the improvement
of generator efficiency, fault ride through time
improvement, and vibration control design methods.
The results of several studies are available. The new
adaptive mass damper has performed well in engine
tests, and it has proved to be an efficient tool in
vibration minimization.
Novel SCR catalyst material studies have generated
valuable knowledge of catalyst efficiencies and
durability against poisoning. The next step – tests
with a diesel exhaust gas side flow – generated more
knowledge of catalyst chemistry, catalyst loading and
an optimal catalyst structure when using high-sulphur
fuels. A significant improvement was achieved with
pre-turbo methane catalyst studies. Conversion
efficiency with the latest development version has
remained high for much longer than before, and tests
are continuing.
Options for future LNG logistics in Finland, as well as
biogas solutions, were explored. A number of new
fuel options and fuel combinations, including liquid
biofuels, were also examined. Certain fuels were
found to be promising considering engine efficiency,
emissions, estimated fuel price, and availability. This
work supported the development of simulation
models to predict the performance and emissions of
fuels.
A few potential low cost sensors have been developed
to the validation phase, e.g. a cylinder pressure sensor
based on an acoustic resonator. Sensors together
with new intelligent solutions, such as the vibration
reduction methodology and fault diagnostics core,
help to achieve optimal control throughout the
lifetime of the power plant.
The new fully optical research engine, the upgraded
extreme value engine and the renewed medium
speed engine research laboratory are examples of
new research infra in universities and research units.
The upgrade of the medium speed engine laboratory
will significantly improve experimental gas engine
research possibilities within the research organizations.

The aim of the Measurement, Monitoring and Environmental Efficiency Assessment
(MMEA) research program is to develop new technologies, methods, tools and
services for environmental observation systems both in industrial processes and in the
surrounding environment. The program started in May 2010 and is planned for five
years (2010–2015) comprising of five Funding Periods (FP) with a total budget of 54.5 M€.
The MMEA consortium is truly cross-sectional and
multidisciplinary; the consortium consists of 42
partners, 29 of which are companies, including 19
small and medium-sized enterprises. The research
contribution of the SMEs represents about a quarter
of the total research volume. For the fourth funding
period (FP4), one new partner (Profium Oy) joined
the consortium, significantly strengthening it in the
area of semantic services. For FP4, the Tekes eligible
budget is €11.4 million. The total Tekes eligible budget
for the period 2010–2015 is estimated to be €54.5
million.
During 2013, the MMEA program was focused
further. Both external and internal cooperation was
improved; several tasks were closed and new pilot
cases were formed. During the period of 2010–2013,
MMEA’s research network steadily increased. MMEA
has tight cooperation with several projects funded
by the Academy of Finland. FidiPro Professor
Chandrasekar’s research group at Colorado State
University has been tightly linked with MMEA
research in the area of remote sensing. The China
Testbed joint research project is progressing well.
Cooperation has also been established with an
enterprise group project and with several national
and EU research projects.
A Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) was invited to
conduct an evaluation in September 2013. Two
members of the board were from academia and two
from companies. SAB’s main task was to critically
evaluate the scientific quality and implementation
of the program. As a general outcome, the scientific
quality was evaluated very high. SAB observed
that MMEA has improved in many areas, such as in
focusing, dissemination and in external and internal
cooperation.
Exploitation of the research results looks promising.
One spin-off initiative is under development. Several
MMEA research results have already been utilized
in the partner’s internal product development
and commercialization projects. Several patent
applications are also in progress and, additionally,
at least three innovation disclosure notifications
have been reported. Two enterprise groups have
been initiated and several are known to be in the
preparation phase. New business cases have been
formed in the Asian market.
The work package of interoperable measurement
systems has continued to open up the data sources
and the development of tools for environmental
monitoring data processing platform technologies,
as well as the concept of an environmental
information market place, Dataoperator (formerly
known as Envitori). The platform technology
provides tools that facilitate data processing chain
development. Testbed is a system that connects
selected data sources to Testbed web pages and
to selected applications, and Dataoperator enables
data sharing on a commercial basis. EnviTori’s vision
is to enable development of an environmental
monitoring service that creates new solutions to
various end-user problems. During 2013, several new
data sources were connected to the platform, and
the MMEA Testbed web page was launched (http://
testbed.mmea.fi). A semantic service prototype and a
participatory sensing system have also been created.
The work between the work packages of data fusion
and environmental efficiency assessment was
earlier merged in order to generate a development
platform for an environmental management system
at the end of the program. Novel solutions will be
obtained by combining real-time measurements and
LCA tools. New data quality assurance algorithms
have been developed for industrial environments.
A predictive emission monitoring system was also
developed for NOXs. Decision support systems have
been created for applications in road maintenance
and wind farms. Additionally, an LCA model has been
developed to evaluate the effects of wood pellets.

The main achievements of the remote sensing
work package are related to the portable 3-band
radar, advanced lidar systems, and new algorithms
for weather and environmental radars. LIDAR
demonstrator prototypes have been developed for
humidity and boundary layer detection applications.
New UAV remote imaging concepts, such as thermal
mapping and hyperspectral imaging, have also been
developed. In the particles and emissions research
area, new particulated measurement instruments
with new measurement have been developed.
Different cost-effective lasers have been determined,
and the manufacture of novel instrument prototypes
has been started. New UV-LED concepts and a sensor
for the detection for floc formation in waste water
have also been developed.
In the work package for dissemination and
internationalization, the SME activation and
roadshows have been steadily continued. In the
China Testbed pilot, an air quality pilot system
with Enviobserver and Pegasor’s PPS-M sensor was
installed at Shenzhen University. A mobile air quality
participatory sensing pilot with students was also
conducted. An agreement (MoU) was signed with
the Chinese Academy of Environmental Sciences
(CRAES) in order to carry out a pilot arrangement at
their site during FP4 (funding period).
In the China Testbed pilot, a memorandum of
understanding was signed in 2012. The EnviObserver
(EO) software with mobile application has been
installed in a server in Shenzhen for testing purposes.
The air quality instruments have been modified and
prepared to be implemented in Shenzhen University.
The pilot proceeds to investigate the utilization of
various data sources and the business potential of
the environmental monitoring services, with special
focus on the utilization of the MMEA Platform.

1. Smart grid drivers and scenarios; market integration and
new business models
2. Future infrastructure of power systems
3. Active resources of the smart grid
4. Customer interface for the smart grid
5. Intelligent management and operation of smart grids
The aim of the Smart Grids and Energy Markets (SGEM) research program, which spans
over the period of 2010–2014 with five funding periods, is to develop internationally
acceptable smart grid solutions that have the potential to be demonstrated in full
scale in the Finnish infrastructure. At the same time, the benefits of an internationally
networked research environment will accumulate the know-how of world-leading ICT
and smart grid providers in Finland.
The SGEM consortium consists of 19 industrial and
eight research partners. Industrial partners consist of
five companies operating in the energy technology
area, five local Distribution System Operators
(DSOs), two energy retailers, the Finnish national
Transmission System Operator (TSO) Fingrid, and six
companies operating in the ICT sector. The program
is scheduled to run for five years with a total budget
of €57 million.
During the fourth funding period (4FP), the SGEM
program structure remained the same as during
the third funding period (3FP), with seven work
packages (WP) each led by a dedicated manager.
This coordination structure was established during
the second funding period and has proven itself to
be successful.
The process of integrating partner objectives into
larger common deliverables and Proof-of-Concepts
continued throughout 4FP. WP1 concentrated
on international relations, defining of future
research directions after the SGEM program, and
benchmarking of the SGEM results. Additionally,
work around an overall smart grid roadmap
continued. Questions such as drivers affecting grid
development, security of supply, and incentives and
implications of DG were investigated.
In WP2, the Lappeenranta University of Technology
(LUT) and Suur-Savon Sähkö continued to
demonstrate real-life operation of a low-voltage
direct current (LVDC) network. The Proof-of-Concept
of an LV network with four households has been in
operation for 20 months without any hiccups. The
customers have been satisfied with the reduction of
short interruptions and improved power quality.
In WP3, research focused on the future aggregate
potential of different load appliances for Demand
Response (DR) in HV networks. Research shows
that up to 10–15% of the reserve capacity in the
transmission networks can be covered by DR.
In WP4, the main target was a novel
implementable holistic Demand Response
(DR) functionality. This has been realized by
determining, developing and demonstrating
different DR functions by various studies and
demonstrations in the Adjutant block of flats in
Espoo, by actions and customers of the electricity
retailers and network companies Oulu Energy,
Helen Supply, Helen Networks, Elenia Networks,
Fortum Distribution, Vantaa Energy Networks
and Fingrid, in cooperation with the industrial
partners Empower IM, ABB and There Corporation,
as well as universities and research institutes.
The work has included various DR applications
at the equipment and system level, interfaces
for data communication and DR benefit analysis,
and also participation in IEA DSM activities,
which has provided SGEM with an international
overview and experience in DR and Energy
Efficiency. Implementation and demonstration of
the interactive customer gateway and microgrid
concept and applications are studied in LUT
as the Green Campus and in TUT as an AC
microgrid laboratory environment. Development
and analysis of load estimation methods have
comprised different approaches (e.g. load profiling,
a Kalman-filter based predictor, and artificial neural
networks) based on smart metering data. The
effects of DR and own production of small-scale
customers on load profiling has also been studied.

WP5 focused on the effect of distributed generation
on distribution networks. The research has resulted
in improved simulation models for analyzing
wind generator control models, short-term wind
generation forecasting, and rules for the grid
connection process for microgeneration. Participants
of WP5 have initiated an international cooperation
with IEA WIND Task 25 and the Nordisk Toppforskning
TFI program. In the research of electric vehicle (EV)
charging, work continued in the implementation
of an ISO/IEC-15118 communication protocol, and
the first pilot case has been in operation since July
2013: a parking hall with tens of charging poles and
communication using a centralized SECC server.
WP6 demonstrated a proof of concept of self-healing
networks. It consisted of the calculation of automatic
fault location at the substation, combined with
the utilization of public wireless networks and first
tests with a low-cost fault indicator, developed by
VTT. The accuracy of fault distance calculation has
been estimated to be around 1–2 km, which makes
it possible to detect temporary faults and predict
emerging problems in the networks.
WP7 developed methodologies for the optimization
of the usage of flexible resources (i.e. DER and DR)
from the viewpoint of different market players
(customer, DSO, TSO, retailer, aggregator), including
business and pricing models. Highlights of the
outcomes include developing and demonstrating
of novel network tariff structures and a DER value
assessment. WP7 also investigated consumers’
attitudes, motives and prerequisites regarding small-
scale electricity production.
When it comes to using the allocated funding, the
program stayed within the budget of the program:
52% of the planned resources for 4FP were used
on the status by 31 October 2013. Calculated
cumulatively from the beginning of the program,
84% of the total budget has been spent, and it is
estimated that 94% of the full SGEM budget will be
spent by the end of 4FP. The start of 4FP activities
was delayed due to a late funding decision by
TEKES. Currently, 61% of planned deliverables have
been finalized. However, the majority of the results
are targeted to be completed at the end of 4FP (28
February 2014).

COOPERATION WITH SHOKS
The companies having the SHOK status (CLEEN
OY, Digile Oy, FIBIC Oy, FIMECC Oy, RYM Oy, SalWe
Oy) have arranged several meetings in various
compositions in order to share and review best
practices, to explore cooperation opportunities and
to coordinate research efforts. Frequent meetings
have been arranged with
• Chairmen of boards and CEOs,
• CEOs and CTOs
• CTOs
• Communications personnel
The intensive cooperation has realized in the form of
joint marketing efforts (e.g. SHOK-summit, marketing
material and common SHOK web pages) and shared
resources (e.g. legal counsel).
An example of a concrete cooperation with SHOKs is
a joint program with FIBIC Ltd on bioenergy focused
research program. The BEST program aims to create
a comprehensive vision of the future bioenergy
ecosystem including identification of various
sustainability measures and the most sustainable
value chains.
INNOVATIIVISUUTTA JULKISIIN
INVESTOINTEIHIN -PROJECT
Since 2012, CLEEN has participated in the
EAKR-funded project‘Innovatiivisuutta Julkisiin
Investointeihin’(http://www. iji-hanke.fi/), with a
subproject of‘Ideasta innovaatioksi’. The objective of
the subproject is to develop an operating process for
CLEEN for identifying and assessing the potential of
scientific publishing, business potential and societal
impact of the knowledge arising from SHOK research
programs. Within the project, efforts have also been
made to discover pilot areas in Southern Finland
for knowledge identified in the CLEEN research
programs.
An operating process for more efficient identification
and documentation of knowledge gained from the
SHOK research programs has also been implemented
for CLEEN in our subproject. The key stages of the
operating process are describing the knowledge,
defining the knowledge type, defining the burdens
and price related to the utilization of the knowledge,
and publishing the knowledge in a public database.
Within the scope of the subproject, CLEEN has also
carried out extensive cooperation with regional
innovation and development organizations, such as
Green Net Finland, Culminatum Innovation Oy Ltd,
Häme University of Applied Sciences (HAMK), Lahti
Region Development LADEC Ltd, and Lappeenranta
University of Technology. CLEEN has carried out
four technology surveys based on the research
results of the SHOK programs for the needs of the
subprojects of the project partners. The surveys focus
especially on distributed energy solutions, energy
efficiency in construction, and smart water. One of
the surveys supports the energy system planning of
Engelinranta, a new suburb in Hämeenlinna.

During 2013, we had many international and cross-
SHOK activities. Last November, CLEEN and three
of its research programs, DESY, MMEA and SGEM,
participated in the China Hi-Tech Fair in Shenzhen. We
organized a full-day Cleantech Open Innovation forum
at the fair together with our Chinese partner Green
China Lab. The objective was to promote Sino-Finnish
cleantech R&D&I operations and cooperation between
China and Finland. Prof.Yao Jianquan, academian of
China, Deputy Head of the national expert group on
Internet of things was one of our keynote speakers
of the forum. Ms Pia Viitanen, Minister of Housing
and Communications, gave an opening speech at
the seminar and mentioned CLEEN as the Finnish
public-private-partnership model for Cleantech in
cooperation with Chinese partners.
CLEEN was also invited to give a keynote speech
at the seminar on“Best international practice in
managing national R&D programs financed together
with business”in Astana, Kazakhstan in June 2013.
The seminar was hosted by Mr Kanysh Tuleushin,
Vice-Minister of Industry and New Technologies of
the Republic of Kazakhstan.
Mr Alexander Stubb, Minister for European Affairs and
Foreign Trade, Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland,
visited India with a business delegation in October
2013, where CLEEN also participated. Cleantech was
one of the focus areas of the visit. CLEEN’s goal was to
discuss and find common R&D interests with Indian
partners in order to launch collaborative research
activities that could be combined with the R&D
activities of CLEEN’s consortia. In December, CLEEN
signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU)
with the Indian Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Ltd
(ONGC).
CLEEN’s annual seminar was successfully held at the
Helsinki Music Centre in June 2013. The two-day event
consisted of keynote speeches covering relevant
themes, e.g. innovation systems in China, the EU and
the USA, as well as future environmental and energy
challenges. The first day ended with a poster session
of CLEEN programs. The second day consisted of three
simultaneous sessions under the themes of systemic
resource efficiency, urbanization and future energy
systems. The seminar presentations and posters are
available on the CLEEN website.
A new free online service offering local weather
information was launched within the MMEA program.
People can track weather radar images, the water
level of lakes, algae and pollen’s spread online, even
when staying at summer cabins using mobile phones.
The MMEA Testbed online service offers weather and
environment observations from all over the country.
It gathers information from several operators and
organizes them into one convenient place. http://

“NET TURNOVER”includes the CLEEN Commission
(€752,461.79), the Program Management Cost (€590,050.26),
Direct Industrial Funding (€820,554.92) and other income
(€12,507.21) that consists of joint costs of SHOK companies
invoiced from CLEEN and further invoiced from other SHOK
companies. The CLEEN Commission is entered as income
based on the stage of completion of the programs. For
Program Management Cost and Direct Industrial Funding,
CLEEN Ltd has exactly the same amount of liabilities
towards Program Parties to cover the budgeted program
management costs and Industrial Partners’direct funding
to Research Partners. The CLEEN Commission, the Program
Management Cost and Direct Industrial Funding are
charged in advance and entered as“Advances received”in
the balance sheet, from where they are entered as income
based on the realized costs and therefore do not have any
effect on the“OPERATING PROFIT”.
“Other operating income”(€206,164.00) consists of public
funding by Tekes from the Tekes project CLEENDEVEP.
The amount entered as income consists of the payments
applied in Q4/2013 and to be applied in Q1/2014 according
to the Tekes funding decision (327/11) and the costs entered
for CLEENDEVEP during H1/2013 and H2/2013. The payments
are included on the balance sheet as“Prepayments and
accrued income”.
“Staff expenses”comprises the staff expenses and social
security expenses of permanent personnel, as well as
the remuneration paid to the members of the Board of
Directors, the Science Council and the Scientific Advisory
Boards.
From the income point of view, the financial position of
CLEEN Ltd is satisfactory due to strong equity balance,
but it is subject to changes in the CLEEN Commissions.
The increase in“OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES”arises
from significant investments made in 2013 to improve
competitiveness and recognition of the CLEEN platform
and to finalize and implement the CLEEN 2.0 project.
These investments included the annual seminar of CLEEN
(organized every two years), intensification of international
cooperation with China and India, and the implementation
of new enterprise resource planning. The investments
are expected to realize during 2014 in the form of two
new research programs comprising the cores of two SRA
(Strategic Research Agenda) project portfolios. The new
research programs will compensate the loss of research
volume and CLEEN Commission in 2015 arising from the
completion of FCEP and SGEM programs in 2014.
CLEEN Ltd was granted extension to the CLEENDEVEP
project until June 2014. After that, CLEEN Ltd will continue
to develop its operations, for which it will apply appropriate
public funding. In 2014,“Other operating income”is also
expected to include payments applied from an ERDF-
funded project concerning innovative public investments in
energy and environment.

“Advances received”comprises the CLEEN Commission
(€144,563.83), the Program Manager Cost (€595,669.83) and
Direct Industrial Funding (€1,314,053.42) invoiced by CLEEN
in advance. The same applies to“Trade creditors”, which
mainly consists of Direct Industrial Funding invoices filed,
but not paid in 2013.
“Prepayments and accrued income”(€275,051.41) consist of
transferred interest (€34,572.94), prepayments of income tax
(€30,415.47), the Tekes grant for CLEENDEVEP (€206,165.00) to
be applied in Q1/2014, and some other minor prepayments
and accrued income.
The increase in“Cash and cash equivalents”(€5,058,436.26) is
due to the Program Management Cost and Direct Industrial
Funding being charged in advance and delayed costs
realization.
The relatively high“Free invested equity reserve”ensures
flexibility to adjust and develop the company’s operations
due to possible unexpected or sudden changes in its
environment.
